From the first moment I saw A Star Is Born with Judy Garland I was totally mesmerised by her incredible performance. The moment we see her put everything into ‘The Man That Got Away’ is incredible.
The release of the trailer for the new version of the film starring Bradley Cooper and Lady Gaga came out last week (Click here if you missed it) and it made me constantly think about this song and that I must watch this version again soon!
This is still the greatest version, but Streisand just announced a new cut of the 1976 film is coming to Netflix! Here are the details: https://johnrieber.com/2018/06/11/barbra-streisands-re-cut-version-of-a-star-is-born-is-coming-to-netflix/

Oh I hope that includes UK Netflix as I haven’t seen that version before!

The movie is flawed but fascinating – and it’s Babs so she sings up a storm!

Wow, such an amazing voice. I haven’t seen this before, she really reminds me of Liza in this.

She really is something else, I think you should find the film to watch as Garland is outstanding. I always forget how much Liza is like her mother!

I’m planning on doing a rewatch, but not until after I see this new one. I want to go into it with fresh eyes and not be tempted to do comparisons – at least not too much. 🙂
